When the Monterey Hotel opened its doors to the public in 1904, it was heralded in the Monterey New Era newspaper as "Finest European hotel, west of Chicago. Has no superior on Pacific coast. Perfect in its appointments and furnished with more modern conveniences than any hotel in the west". Today, that European elegance still exists in the hotel. Natural wood tones, antique patinas, leaded glass chandeliers, and wall sconces add warmth to this Victorian masterpiece.

The elegant yet comfortable decor of the forty-five lavishly restored guest rooms will make your stay a unique experience.

Offering rooms and suites with hand-carved furnishings, ceiling fans and plantation shutters, the designer interiors with marble baths welcome guests with the rare comforts of the Victorian era. Master Suites provide the additional luxury of romantic fireplaces.

We also have recently renovated suites.

Due to the historic nature of the property, we do not have elevator access.
